    How was your appointment with Dr. Lefkof?

    Nov 16, 2016
    Today was my first visit. Dr. Lefkof and staff were courteous and took their time explaining all information. I had to wait about half an hour but he did not rush through my exam. So far, I would recommend him as a gastroenterologist!!
